7:48 My favourite shot. So expressive!
Thank you! Definitely one of my favourites too
Fantastic, absolutely fantastic!
Thank you
I am so so envious of you, what a stunning location and subjects. I can only dream, thank you for sharing those beautiful images.
Hopefully one day you'll be able to visit somewhere similar. Thanks Barry
Hi Kim, wow aren't Puffins beautiful & just so intriguing to watch. Really wonderful images Kim . Thanks so much for sharing your time there with us, very inspiring not only in photography but beautiful, stunning nature too. x
Thank you very much! They certainly are very beautiful 😍
Well done Kim for capturing this iconic bird so well, some of the best Puffin images I've seen in a long time, thank you for sharing.
Your images are simply beautiful Kim, thanks for sharing this amazing experience 👏
Good morning Kim, what a lovely video....that must have been quite a special time with the two puffins in love.
Morning Brian! Thank you. It sure was 😊
3:02 Beautiful serendipity. The softness is a gift adding uniqueness :)
Good morning, beautiful birds and photo's. We as humans are blessed with so much around us, one just has to stop, and look around. Material things can't compare to the natural beauty given to us. Well done Kim, thanks again for a sunday morning video, have a safe and blessed week.
Beautiful words. Thank you for sharing
I would come back with 10,000 photos of Puffins. Thanks for sharing your love and connection with nature.
Great numbers of Puffins love the defused in flower shots ❤
Thank you! Was a delight to see so many
Stunning photos, just love the puffins. We go to Bempton cliffs to see them but only few there these days
Thank you! They certainly are beautiful birds
Very nice shots! Another great location for Scottish Puffins. Thank you
Thanks Kim, what a great way to start my Sunday.
I so love the image at 6:28, the puffin hovering over the others is so fun and calming at the same time
Thank you!
Great idea to photograph through the flowers/grass. Loved them.
Thank you Tristan 😊
What a wonderful experience, you've got some real ripper shots too. Lovely.
Thank you! It certainly was 😊
A great start to a Sunday.
Wish i was there.
They are such beautiful birds and one day i hope to get to photograph them.
Absolutely stunning image's Kim.
Thank you Tim. I hope you're able to see and photograph them one day too 😊
Ah the Puffins.. such a strange looking bird. Praise to God for the beauty of nature, and that we can enjoy it and share it
Puffins truly inspire you. It shows in the stunning and unique presentations exhibited in this video. As usual, thanks for sharing.
Happy Sunday morning Kim and another wonderful vlog to wake up to. Stunning shots as per usual and thank you for sharing. Hope you have a wonderful week.
Thank you very much - you too! 😊
@@kimgrantphotography Cheers Kim....Joe
Beautiful absolutely beautiful no other words to say
Great video again Kim and your passion shines through, thank you. Was on Skomer a couple of weeks ago with an increase in the number of puffins to over 40,000 this year, amazing birds to just watch and enjoy, never fail to make me smile. Take good care of you. Best wishes. Terry
Sounds like you had a wonderful time Terry. They are wonderful birds. Thank you!
oh wow - what a wonderful experience that all would have been! Puffins seem to be a gorgeous bird. The details you've captured are beautiful. Thanks for sharing the joy of them.
What a visual treat! That was absolute perfection. Thanks for sharing your Westray adventure with us.
They are amazing birds. Went to Skomer in June, best photo shoot ever. Your images are beautiful, some for your wall. Many thanks for sharing Kim.
Sounds like you had a wonderful time Roy! Thank you
Was on Westray last year but a little too late in the season for Puffins, got nice shots of Seals and Gannets though. Well worth the hour on the ferry, beautiful island and lovely people that have a habit of waving to you, even the young children. Off to Iceland in 3 weeks and lots of Puffins, they are so endearing and photogenic 📷 lovely shots Kim, liked the effect of shooting through grass and flowers, as you say different 👍 and the more normal images were fabulous.
What a beautiful images of the puffins you shared with us. So wonderful. Thank you Kim
Puffins always give a good show.
The shot at 6:40 is stunning!
Beautiful photos 👏🏻
Thank you!
Great images Kim, and thanks for taking the time to share your settings on some of them. I know you have discussed in the past the reasons for not doing this and I totally agree. There are videos that are heavy on the tutorial and gear side, which have their place, but sometimes emphasizing all the non-technical bonuses of doing photography is why we watch and why we enjoy doing it. I did notice on this one that I was curious about the settings and glad when they popped up. For amateurs, like myself, it can give us ideas of where to start even if the situations are only remotely similar and we are using different gear or shooting styles.
Fantastic! Your captures exceeded all the puffin images I’ve seen. Endearing and unique.
Beautiful video... beautiful photos! You did an incredible job of presenting them. I will be watching this one again and again. Peace, Donna
Love the Puffins and you certainly did them justice. Thank you for sharing.
Hi kim they are such lovely birds 🐦 dunno if we have any in Australia 🇦🇺
Thank you. I don't think you do but I could be wrong. I think they're only in more northern countries
Wonderful video, Kim. Great images all, but was really drawn to the shots @10:00 and @10:16. Thanks for sharing👍
Just beautiful! The photo at 8:06 is my favorite from this video.
Beautiful images of a wonderful bird. Just splendid, Kim!
Thank you Martin
Absolutely awesome Kim, just love Puffins. Images were gorgeous.
Lovely photos 👏👏👏👏
Thank you
Hi Kim, I just discovered your channel. With your 40+ k subscribers I am not alone. My comment doesn't relate to this particular video but to your channel. A year and half ago, I bought my first camera. I have now got a better one but your sentiments reflect so closely mine. There are two things in this endeavour, getting out and taking the photos and then coming home to relive the experience in the intricate, mind blowing beauty of Creation. You are substantially doing in your channel something that I had vaguely hoped to do myself as I saw the benefits to getting out in nature for my mental health. Congratulations. I have a lot of your videos to catch up with. PS I like your name.
Beautiful photos... Those eyes... I need to capture these birds somewhere... not many in Texas :) Cheers.
Wow, so amazing 😍
Excellent photographs. Well done.
Wow! Beautiful images! Puffins are such photogenic birds. One of the birds that I really want to photograph. Have you thought about doing a workshop in Orkney to photograph Puffins? For me and since I am in Miami, it would have to be for next year, but would love to do one there. Thank you!
What an amazing sights to see beautiful puffins in the morning ❤❤ Thanks for sharing your beautiful experience with us. It's really motivating to go outside and spend time in nature ❤
Thank you! It certainly is 😊
great video Kim thanks so much for the lovely images. maybe if an ice age ever came in my life time i can see them here in hot humid Jeddah, LOL, God forbid.
Thank you! Oh gosh - who knows what the future holds 😂
Wonderful video and amazingly photos of the Puffins!
Wow Kim. Puffin heaven, with some great images too. 🙂
Feels like I am there! Taking my Nikon 300mm 2.8 ed Ai, and olympus micro 4/3 ( If I can lift it!) To Orkney in June, puffins look out!
Nice pictures Kim nature is wonderful.......
Some beautiful images Kim. Well done 👍
Absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely beautiful - I got goosebumps watching those special moments between puffins. What an incredible gift to be there and come away with truly awesome images 👍
Thank you! It certainly was an amazing experience
You have just doubled my excitement for my forthcoming trip to Orkney as it includes a trip to Westray.
Exciting! Hope you have a great time
It's a puffin Sunday. Nigel Danson is also showcasing puffins on his channel. Great shots. Carry on. 👍🥂
So I see!!
Nigel is a landscape photographer venturing into wildlife. Kim has definitely got the edge with her puffin shots. I especially like those with the thrift in shot.
Fantastic Photos Kim. Love the Puffins, amazing little birds.❤

Super video and photos!!!!!
Those birds never look real. Great stuff and thanks for bringing us along with you!
You're welcome 😁
Incredible images and I love your excitement!
Thank you
Great stuff.
Thinking 300mmm 2.8, but too heavy and depth of field maybe problem, so Nikon 300mm f4 mf from the eighties it is next week on the mainland!
I have enjoyed Puffins several times i Norway, one year I spent some days many hours in the middle of a Puffin colony, often the Puffins came closer than my Lens could focus at 1.7m
❤
Great video, superb shots!
